Vancouver Canucks defenseman Quinn Hughes and forward J.T. Miller were the final two participants voted into the NHL All-Star Skills Competition, the league announced Saturday.
Hughes and Miller join 10 previously selected participants that will compete for the $1-million prize on Feb. 2. Here are all 12 players involved in the skills portion of All-Star Weekend:
| Player | Position | Team |
|---|---|---|
| David Pastrnak | Forward | Boston Bruins |
| Nathan MacKinnon | F | Colorado Avalanche |
| Cale Makar | Defenseman | Avalanche |
| Leon Draisaitl | F | Edmonton Oilers |
| Connor McDavid | F | Oilers |
| Jack Hughes | F | New Jersey Devils |
| Nikita Kucherov | F | Tampa Bay Lightning |
| Auston Matthews | F | Toronto Maple Leafs |
| William Nylander | F | Maple Leafs |
| Elias Pettersson | F | Vancouver Canucks |
| J.T. Miller | F | Canucks |
| Quinn Hughes | D | Canucks |
Now that Hughes and Miller were voted in, the Vancouver Canucks lead the way with three participants.
Each player will compete in four of the first six events: Fastest skater, hardest shot, stick handling, one-timers, passing challenge, and accuracy shooting.
From there, the top eight point-earners advance to the seventh round, where players will choose which goaltender to shoot against in a shootout.
The final round features the top six point-earners in an obstacle course, where points will be doubled. The player with the most points after all eight rounds wins the $1-million prize.
